Our Mission

Project HoriZen aims to bridge the gaps between Western therapy principles and Eastern cultural values. We recognise that in our increasingly interconnected world, there is a need to understand and integrate diverse cultural perspectives into mental health. In doing so we hope to encourage and increase cultural competency in clinical practice with the aim to help destigmatise mental health in Asian communities.

We aim to provide research, training and supervision to equip mental health practitioners worldwide with the knowledge, skills and resources to provide culturally sensitive and effective care to Asian populations.

Participant Testimonials

“Dani is a wonderful trainer/psychologist. I feel so grateful to have stumbled upon one of her trainings at the dedication, warmth, knowledge and passion she brings to her work is inspiring. Since this training I have been able to network with likeminded professionals and grow as a psychologist. The training supported me to align my professional practice with my personal values. Would recommend to anyone!”

Rooted in Culture Workshop

“I just want to say thank you for creating this retreat for CARM clinicians. I love the experiential exercises and the tome to do reflection writing after each exercise. Well done to all of you.”

Rooted in Culture Workshop

“I liked how the retreat allowed us space to be ourselves, there was no “right” or “wrong” answers. I realised my mind is even more scattered than I thought but felt ok to observe that and reflect on it rather than judge it.”

East meets West Workshop

“East Meets West: Integrating Culture into Clinical Practice” is one of the most impactful PDs I’ve attended. Dani blends clinical expertise with lived cultural wisdom, offering practical tools and thoughtful frameworks that immediately strengthen cross-cultural work. Her facilitation is warm, engaging, and grounded in real-world experience. I left feeling more confident, reflective, and better equipped to hold culture as central – not secondary – in therapeutic practice. Highly recommend.”

East meets West Workshop

“This workshop is like a gateaway for becoming a more culturally responsive therapist. In addition to relevant tools and space to reflect, the sense of community and solidarity gained from connecting with other therapists is invaluable!”
